Subject: Visually superior to the redone version
Recently came across the redone version and it's completely unwatchable for anyone bothered by flashing lights; the video is full of flashing/strobing
...
neon blue special effects to edit out the two split seconds where the characters in blackface are front and center and noticeable, and apparently some other scenes where they're in the background and not. It also covers up the tap footwork and other details and makes the whole video look like a futuristic sci-fi film instead of capturing the vibe of the 1920s (hence the brief inclusion of blackface, when it was a thing). I don't mind there being an alternate version for people who felt the blackface was a racist slur against them (I'm sure it wasn't meant that way), but all the flashy special effects just make everything look messy and hard to see and anachronistic, when otherwise the original was a very well done video. Not an improvement -- I'd recommend the live version for people who want to avoid this one -- and I'm glad this version still exists. All I knew at first was the other one looked wrong (having seen and loved the original in the 80s), but I didn't know why. Now I do, and this one is such a relief on the eyes after forcing myself to watch the other all the way through for comparison purposes. You don't learn about history by erasing it, which seems to be what people nowadays want to do. Tear down statues, destroy art, ban classic movies. Get rid of beloved brand mascots like the Land o' Lakes harvest maiden (the Native American artist who painted it took great care to make all the details authentic and took great pride in it according to his son) and Aunt Jemima (the actress who played her for years was also incredibly proud of representing the character, according to her family) -- like do you really care about the opinions of the people involved and their feelings or are you just trying to earn 'pc points' with the public? Like yes do better going forward if a change needs to be made, but you don't always have to throw out the baby with the bathwater.
